PLEASE READ:  Becаuse the geоgrаphy аnd climate оf Utah, is sо varied, the Fremont people became very good at adapting to their environment. Most were full-time farmers. They grew corn, beans, and squash in small plots along the river. Other groups did not farm; instead, they remained full-time hunter-gathers like their ancestors. Still others shifted between these two lifestyles. Village farmers might grow crops one year and break into small bands of hunters and collectors of wild plants the next year.  The Fremont people built their villages near small streams or at the mouths of canyons, where the water and soil were good. They dug irrigation ditches to bring water from streams to their crops. Like the Puebloans, the Fremont culture created pit houses. They made rooms lined with rock to store food until the next crop was harvested. However, their dwellings never advanced into cliff dwellings like those of the Ancestral Puebloans.  QUESTION: How did the Fremont interact with the environment in way a that is similar to how we do?
